Version 2.6.5:

Fixes and improvements

Fixes the issue that caused slow user interface responses

I wouldn't say its the best FTP client because actually I found it quite unreliable, especially for FTP/SFTP, but when it does work it is very fast. Some better testing to iron out the bugs and it could be a lot better and earn a higher rating.
